Abstract
AbstractA color rendition chart, the preferred memory color (PMC) chart, has been produced. It comprises 30 colored patches, divided into three groups: preferred memory colors, reference color‐gamut colors, and a gray scale. The main purpose of the new chart is to enable users to produce satisfactory preferred color reproduction using digital cameras, displays, and printing systems. The methods used to develop the various colors, and the color specification of each color are presented. Finally, several potential applications of the chart for the characterization of imaging devices, for the evaluation of image color quality, and for the calculation of color rendering indices for lighting are suggested.
